I’m reluctant to the use the North American name for this game – otherwise known as Kiki Kaikai in its native Japan – because it’s so damn rubbish. Marketing men making up the game names again…

Krusty’s Super Fun House, Super Nintendo
Krusty’s Super Fun House was developed by Fox Williams and Audiogenic and was published on the Super Nintendo in 1992 by Acclaim.
The game is a single-player platform puzzler, with you – as Krusty – directing small rats to an extermination area at the end of various obstacles. Each level is a puzzle, and a certain number of rats must be exterminated to win.

Dungeon Master, Super Nintendo
This is a very effective Japanese conversion of the great US, 16-bit classic, Dungeon Master, by FTL and Software Heaven.
The conversion was handled by JVC Interactive and was first released in Japan in 1992, before being translated and released in North America and Europe later.
Super Mario Kart, Super Nintendo
I would argue that the original 1992 Super Mario Kart on the SNES is still the greatest Mario Kart game of all time.
Another World, Megadrive/Genesis
There are countless versions of Another World – Delphine Software‘s 1991, sci-fi masterpiece – but the Megadrive version (shown here) is arguably the best of them.
Ecco the Dolphin, Megadrive/Genesis
Sega‘s classic Ecco the Dolphin was first released in 1992 for the Megadrive/Genesis.
King Arthur’s World, Super Nintendo
Argonaut Software‘s 1992 release (through Jaleco) – King Arthur’s World – is an interesting and challenging real time action game with strategic overtones.
Trip World, Game Boy
Anyone familiar with the NES game Mr. Gimmick will see similarities between that and Trip World, a cute and slightly weird platform game released for the Nintendo Game Boy in 1992 (incidentally the same year as Mr. Gimmick).
